Chevrolet is synonymous with “reliability.” Chevy vehicles offer cutting-edge safety features that help drivers feel more confident, whether they’re running daily errands in Parkersburg or setting out on a road trip from Ripley. Below, you can learn more about some of the most popular safety features found on new Chevy vehicles, and how they work to make drivers and their passengers safer.
When this system detects a potential front-end collision, it’ll warn you and can provide a tailgating alert if you’re following a car too closely. If you’re traveling below 50 mph during the day, Automatic Emergency Braking works with Forward Collision Alert using camera technology to help you avoid a possible frontal collision.
If this system detects a possible collision with a pedestrian directly in front of you, and you’re traveling below 50 mph, it can intervene and notify you or provide automatic hard braking.
If you begin to accidentally drift out of your lane, Lane Keep Assist will quickly turn the wheel to get your attention, so you can course correct. Lane Departure may also issue alerts. Using your turn signal normally will not activate these systems.
Following Distance Indicator informs you of the following gap (in seconds) between you and a straight-ahead vehicle.
You can program Adaptive Cruise Control to automatically maintain a safe following distance as you steer, so you don’t have to readjust your speed again and again.
When you’re in Reverse mode, the Rear Vision Camera provides a live feed of the area behind your car, so you can park more easily and avoid objects that may damage your vehicle.
Blind Zone Alert provides side-mirror alerts that tell you when another vehicle is in your blind zone, while Lane Change Alert can help you change lanes more safely.
This system automatically turns the high beams on and off, based on the traffic conditions around you.
